    What kind of units? IU's stands for "international units" just in case that's what you were referring to. If that's what you're referring to then they're the same thing.

    Sorry I should have explained better. Are units on an insulin pin the same as IUs? I am being told they are not. And if not how do I convert them.

    Best to tell what you are measuring with slin pin and answer can be given.

    If asking do you meaure LR3, IGF-1, Slin, GH all the same then NO!! That can lead to death if thinking the measuring system is the same.

    Tell us exactly what you are measuring out, we'll set you up..

    the units on my slin pins are in iu of water. the pin holds 1cc which would be 100 iu of water. each of the 10 iu marks is furthur subdivided. I reconstitute my hgh with sater in a ratio that gives me 10 iu of hgh in every 10 iu of water. Remember iu is a measure if mass, not volume.

    yes. if you mix 1cc (which is the same volume as 1ml) of water with 10 iu of gh, then 2 iu of the mixture will give you a dose of 2iu of hgh. Ir your hgh comes in 16 iu amounts, then mix it in 1.6 cc of water and then the ius of gh will correspond to the iu on your pin. good luck

    sorry if I am being redundant, but I am a high school math teacher and often find that repetition and expanded explanations are helpful.

    Power, how many mg's or IU is the GH you have now? Do you have 1/2 cc or 1cc Slin pins..

    If you mix 1mL(cc) with a 10iu gh vial then 20iu's on a slin pin would give you 2iu's

    This is right, and the way I do my GH. I will dilute a vial of 10IU of GH with 1ml(cc) of water. This will give you 10IU of GH in 100 IU of your mixture. So 10 IU on your slin pin is equal to 1IU of GH.

    Are you saying that if I use the same miture as above in order to take 6 IU I need to shot 60 IU's

    that is right. If you dilute 10IU of GH with 1ml or water. 1ml = 100 units on a 1ml slin pin. So 100 units/10IU GH= 10 units/1IU GH. Simple math. You can use any ratio you want.
